The Almoner’s Z Card
Pocket Guide
Communicating effectively to people is at the heart of getting everybody concerned to
work together with one purpose. We have thought long and hard about how best to
do this for Lodge and Chapter Almoners and in addition to newsletters, workshops and
conferences, we came up with the idea of producing a Z Card for Almoners in Essex.
Why? Well it is easy to read, and simply to carry about.
The card explains a summary of the Almoners role, provides all the most popular contact
details, gives a summary about the core charities and helps to sign post people to the right
destination if they need assistance. It will fit into any pocket and wallet, it is light in weight
and it takes up no room at all.
We believe that we are the first province to launch such a product for Almoners and it has
now been distributed to all Lodge and Chapter Almoners and their Deputies. The feedback
has been very good and all new almoners, on appointment, will be sent one by their Dep.
Group Almoner in the post.
